UFCThe Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) is a U.S.-based mixed martial arts organization, recognized as the largest MMA promotion in the world. The UFC is headquartered in Las Vegas, Nevada and is owned and operated by Zuffa, LLC. This promotion is responsible for solidifying the sport's postion in the history-books.
UFC is currently undergoing a remarkable surge in popularity, along with greater mainstream media coverage. UFC programming can now be seen on FOX, FX, and FUEL TV in the United States, as well as in 35 other countries worldwide.

On Wednesday news broke that UFC Heavyweight Alistair Overeem was forced to pull out of his UFC 160 fight with former champion Junior Dos Santos. The Reem tore his quadricep in training, an injury that should take him 4-5 weeks to rehabilitate.

Immediately after the announcement of the bout's cancellation, the internet took arms in another "Rally For Mark Hunt", pleading with UFC Dana White to replace Alistair with the heavy-handed Samoan. After being reached by Ariel Helwani on whether or not he'd be willing to fight Dos Santos, Hunt said "I was born down. You know this." So, it came as a big surprise to fans on Thursday, when White claimed that Hunt had turned down the fight.

Mark spoke out against Dana's statement on Twitter:

@markhunt1974

I have never turned down a fight and even wen I was injured I had to force myself not to fight your general fears no man but the almighty.

The denial seemed to have caught Dana's eye as he updated on his own Twitter just a couple hours later:

@danawhite

Mark Hunt and I just got off the phone and had a GREAT conversation!!

Obviously, there's a lot of ambiguity in what a "GREAT conversation" means. For those keeping their fingers crossed for a JDS vs. Hunt match, I wouldn't hold my breath. However, it seems possible that Hunt could get a different high profile fight on the UFC 160 card in May.

Compulsive lying bald boso fck. How dare Dana accuse The Super Samoan of turning down a fight. Are people ever going to realise that Dana White is and always has been FULL OF SHIT.
